RETURN: Rooney is close to a comeback

“We are going to count on him hopefully for the next game, so it is better for everyone.”

Ander Herrera

Herrera said: “Wayne is the top scorer for us this season and he usually is the top scorer of this club.

"We are going to count on him hopefully for the next game, so it is better for everyone.

"I always say that when you have competition in the team it is better for everyone in the team. It is going to be better for Anthony [Martial], it is going to be better for Marcus [Rashford], it is going to be better for Jesse [Lingard] - players who can play there.
